Barbara was an active member of the Park Ridge Community where she and her husband, John, lived for over 35 years. Barb had unconditional love for all God's people, a beautiful smile, infectious laugh, generosity and warmth. She was an active member for several organizations inside and outside of Park Ridge. More than anything...she loved being a Mom to her three daughters, a loving wife, faithful friend and amazing sister. She is missed each and every day but never forgotten.
